World’s Oldest Human Remains were discovered in Israel This challenges conventional wisdom that Homo sapiens originated in Africa. Eight teeth uncovered in an Israeli cave are the earliest traces of our species known.

Israeli archaeologists have discovered human remains dating from 400,000 years ago, challenging conventional wisdom that Homo sapiens originated in Africa, the leader of excavations in Israel said on Tuesday.

Avi Gopher, of Tel Aviv University’s Institute of Archaeology, said testing of stalagmites, stalactites and other material found in a cave east of Tel Aviv indicates that eight teeth uncovered there could be the earliest traces so far of our species.

“Our cave was used for a period of about 250,000 years — from about 400,000 years ago to about 200,000 years ago,” he told AFP.

“The teeth are scattered through the layers of the cave, some in the deeper part, that is to say from 400,000 years and through all kinds of other layers that can be up to 200,000 years. The oldest are 400,000 years old,” he added.”

That calls into question the widely held view that Africa was the birthplace of modern man, said Gopher, who headed the dig at Qesem Cave.

“It is accepted at the moment that the earliest Homo sapiens that we know is in east Africa and is 200,000 years old — or a little less. We don’t know of anywhere else where anyone claims to have an earlier Homo sapiens,” he said.

"The world will soon wake up to the reality that everyone is broke and can collect nothing from the bankrupt, who are owed unlimited amounts by the insolvent, who are attempting to make late payments on a bank holiday in the wrong country, with an unacceptable currency, against defaulted collateral, of which nobody is sure who holds title."

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

The woman who is not pursued sets up the doctrine that pursuit is offensive to her sex, and wants to make it a felony. No genuinely attractive woman has any such desire. - H.L. Mencken, In Defense Of Women

how does where we originated even matter? im here now, not 400,000 years ago. where were the mammals that we evolved from originate from? huh, huh? and what exact spot on earth did bacteria originate from? I need to know so i can claim superiority over Hakeem down the street.

Because for a few generations white people have been brain washed by a white supremacist system, they must have the Universe revolve around them or they can't make sense of anything. This makes them prone to dishonesty.

I would never trust anything that an Israeli says. They are the New Nazi's.

It is a known fact that all humans on earth living have in their DNA the Mitochondria of A Black woman from Africa because we are all her children.

The Blacks are the oldest people on earth and at one time completely populated the entire earth.

Africans gave us the Seven day week,the 30 day month and the calculations of the stars that we use for astronomy,astrology and farming.

How is this relevant today? For many reasons, but I just point it out to screw with White racist douche bags.

Wow... spoken like a black racist, which are by far the worst - brainwashed beyond logic or reality

notice a few comments about scientists why do you regard them with such high esteem they are some right sick fucks doing some real twisted shit and you seem to trust what they tell you come on think about it and you'll see what I mean

Absolutely no way to determine that these things are 400,000 Years Old. Earth is only around 6,000 years old anyways.

And fossil dating based on the later is fucking Quackery that has time and time again been proven to be a fraud. You can't date shit on what layer it is in and then determine the layers age by what's in it. HOW FUCKING STUPID.
